after a HSA has been created at a bank, when the kid break his leg playing football or skiing or is found to have cancer at age ten, he will likely find that there are insufficient funds in that acct and he will then go untreated because the banking death panel will deny him the funds, even though it's his money. Yeah, I think single payer is the only answer but there will probably have to be a civil war to get it. It's still the "trust us, we're the bankers!" meme.
